Isaiah 57
1 The upright man goes to his death, and no one gives a thought to it; and god-fearing men are taken away, and no one is troubled by it; for the upright man is taken away because of evil-doing, and goes into peace.
Maty ny marina, nefa tsy misy misaina izany, ary alaina ny olona tsara fanahy, nefa tsy misy mihevitra fa ny marina dia alaina tsy ho azon’ ny loza hanjo.
2 They are at rest in their last resting-places, every one going straight before him.
Miditra amin’ ny fiadanana izy, mandry amin’ ny fandriany avy izy, dia izay rehetra mizotra amin’ ny hitsiny.
3 But come near, you sons of her who is wise in secret arts, the seed of her who is false to her husband, and of the loose woman.
Fa ianareo kosa dia mankanesa etỳ, ry zanaky ny mpanandro, ianareo taranaky ny mpaka vadin’ olona sy ny mpijangajanga.
4 Of whom do you make sport? against whom is your mouth open wide and your tongue put out? are you not uncontrolled children, a false seed,
Iza no ihomehezanareo? Iza no isanasananareo vava sy itrangatranganareo lela? Tsy taranaky ny fiodinana va ianareo sady taranaky ny lainga?
5 You who are burning with evil desire among the oaks, under every green tree; putting children to death in the valleys, under the cracks of the rocks?
Dia ianareo izay mahamaimay ny fonareo amin’ ny hazo terebinta eny ambanin’ ny hazo maitso rehetra, ka mamono zaza eny an-dohasahan-driaka eny ambanin’ ny tsefatsefaky ny harambato.
6 Among the smooth stones of the valley is your heritage; they, even they, are your part: even to them have you made a drink offering and a meal offering. Is it possible for such things to be overlooked by me?
Ao amin’ ny vato kilonjy any an-dohasahan-driaka no anjaranao, eny, ireny ihany no anjaranao; ireny koa no nanidinanao fanatitra aidina sy nanateranao fanatitra hohanina. Hahatsindry fo amin’ izany va Aho?
7 You have put your bed on a high mountain: there you went up to make your offering.
Teo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra avo sy manerinerina no nametrahanao ny fandrianao, ka tany no niakaranao hamono zavatra natao fanatitra.
8 And on the back of the doors and on the pillars you have put your sign: for you have been false to me with another; you have made your bed wide, and made an agreement with them; you had a desire for their bed where you saw it
Teo ivohon’ ny varavarana sy ny tolam-baravarana no nametrahanao ny fampahatsiarovana anao; fa lavitra Ahy no nitanjahanao sy niakaranao, eny, nataonao malalaka ny fandrianao, ary nanao fanekena ny amin’ izay hataon’ ireny ianao; tia ny fandriana aminy ianao ka nizaha toerana ho anao.
9 And you went to Melech with oil and much perfume, and you sent your representatives far off, and went as low as the underworld. (Sheol h7585)
Dia nivezivezy nankany amin’ ny mpanjaka ianao nitondra diloilo, ary nataonao betsaka ny zava-manitrao, sady nampandehanina hatrany lavitra any ny irakao, ka nidina hatrany amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ianao. (Sheol h7585)
10 You were tired with your long journeys; but you did not say, There is no hope: you got new strength, and so you were not feeble.
Noho ny halavitry ny nalehanao dia sasatra ianao, nefa ianao tsy niteny hoe: kivy aho izany! Nahazo aina ny tananao, ka dia tsy nahatsiaro reraka ianao.
11 And of whom were you in fear, so that you were false, and did not keep me in mind, or give thought to it? Have I not been quiet, keeping myself secret, and so you were not in fear of me?
Ary iza no nahinao sy natahoranao, no dia nandainga ianao ka tsy nahatsiaro ahy na nandatsaka am-po? Moa tsy efa nangina va Aho hatrizay hatrizay? Ka dia tsy natahotra Ahy ianao.
12 I will make clear what your righteousness is like and your works; you will have no profit in them.
Izaho no hanambara ny fahamarinanao ary ny asanao dia tsy hahasoa anao.
13 Your false gods will not keep you safe in answer to your cry; but the wind will take them, they will be gone like a breath: but he who puts his hope in me will take the land, and will have my holy mountain as his heritage.
Raha mitaraina ianao, dia aoka ireo maronao no hamonjy anao, nefa hongahan’ ny rivotra avokoa ireo sy ho lasan’ ny tso-drivotra malemilemy aza; Fa izay mialoka amiko kosa no hanana ny tany sy handova ny tendrombohitro masìna.
14 And I will say, Make it high, make it high, get ready the way, take the stones out of the way of my people.
Ary Izy hilaza hoe: Manandrata, eny, manandrata ka manamboara lalana, esory izay mahatafintohina eny amin’ ny alehan’ ny oloko.
15 For this is the word of him who is high and lifted up, whose resting-place is eternal, whose name is Holy: my resting-place is in the high and holy place, and with him who is crushed and poor in spirit, to give life to the spirit of the poor, and to make strong the heart of the crushed.
Fa izao no lazain’ ny Iray avo sy manerinerina, izay monina mandrakizay, masìna no anarany: Ao amin’ ny fitoerana avo sy masìna no onenako, ary ao amin’ ny torotoro fo sy ny manetry tena, hamelombelona ny fanahin’ ny manetry tena sy hamelombelona ny fon’ ny torotoro fo;
16 For I will not give punishment for ever, or be angry without end: for from me breath goes out; and I it was who made the souls.
Fa tsy hifandahatra mandrakariva Aho ary tsy ho tezitra mandrakizay; Fandrao ho reraka eo anatrehako ny fanahy, dia ny aina izay nataoko.
17 I was quickly angry with his evil ways, and sent punishment on him, veiling my face in wrath: and he went on, turning his heart from me.
Ny helony noho ny fieremany no nahatezitra Ahy ka namelezako azy; fa niery Aho, satria tezitra, nefa niodina izy ka mbola nandroso tamin’ ny lalana tian’ ny fony ihany.
18 I have seen his ways, and I will make him well: I will give him rest, comforting him and his people who are sad.
Efa nahita ny lalany Aho, nefa hahasitrana azy ihany, dia hitari-dalana azy Aho ka hampody ny fiononana ho aminy sy ho amin’ ny malahelo ao aminy,
19 I will give the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is near and to him who is far off, says the Lord; and I will make him well.
Dia Izaho Izay mahary ny vokatry ny molotra: Fiadanana, fiadanana ho an’ izay lavitra sy ho an’ izay akaiky! hoy Jehovah, ka dia hahasitrana azy Aho.
20 But the evil-doers are like the troubled sea, for which there is no rest, and its waters send up earth and waste.
Fa ny ratsy fanahy dia tahaka ny ranomasina misamboaravoara, eny, tsy mety tafatoetra izy, ka ny ranony dia mamoaka loto sy fotaka.
21 There is no peace, says my God, for the evil-doers.
Tsy misy fiadanana ho an’ ny ratsy fanahy, hoy Andriamanitro.
